With the Northumberland landmark featuring in the new Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny film, it’s announced dates of its open air cinema nights – and we’ve got a pair of tickets to give away for each one.

England’s finest coastal fortress is hosting four sunset outdoor cinema nights on its Inner Ward courtyard in August - the very spot where Harrison Ford playing daredevil adventurer and archaeologist Indiana Jones and his supporting cast were filming.

Dance and sing along to MAMMA MIA! featuring Abba’s favourite hits on Saturday August 12. Dust off your top hats for infectiously feel-good favourite The Greatest Showman on Saturday August 26.

Topping off a summer of blockbusters with a singing and dancing finale is Grease, on Sunday August 27.

Bamburgh Castle visitor services manager, Karen Larkin, said: “Bamburgh Castle outdoor film nights are a highlight of the summer – and if you haven’t experienced them before now is your chance.

“There’s something unbelievably magical about being inside the Castle’s walls at dusk. As easy as it is to stick on a Netflix film, there’s nothing quite like watching and singing along to your favourite film on the big screen.

"And being here with your family and friends in our amazing setting high above one of the best beaches in the country is an experience that’s second to none.

“You can sit in the very spot which will feature in the new Indiana Jones film and be part of movie history yourself.”
